I agree not difficult, however, not interested in tripping Knox at this point, hence the APK would be awesome......

Just an idea, is it possible to raise the bitRate of the slow-motion camera? 1/2 sits at around 10mbit if I remember. Could it be raised to 20 or even higher? Cheers!

It doesn't work just yet, i havent implemented it but it is an easy fix. Go into system/app and delete SamsungCamera2.apk and rename the SamsungCamera2.bak to SamsungCamera2.apk

What rom where u running?

i actually don't know where to look for that, alexhc18 is the one that has found every location so far so I'm hoping he comes to this thread from the orignal one i opened he really has been the brains behind this operation, im just the packager

Installed fine, but after first boot, i have not camera.
Wiping cache after that results in a Bootloop.

Regards

Robert

can u both save the log at the end and send it to me? When you get to the end of the installer right after it installs it will say next or save log, i think it saves it to the sdcard. That might help me see whats going on

Hi,

I have a problem with this mod, I flash v2 but after flash I have not camera.
I think this is a problem with modem, I have a MJ7 with Bobcat rom and don't work.

But if i test with Note 3 N9005 with Bobcat rom v2 + modem MJ1 it's work.

Why ? Where is the problem ? There is any solution ?

Thanks

    Did one better ;) , made it flashable: (by the way no need to clear anything aka cache or dalvik but always a good idea if you have any problems

    Flashable

    Non-flashable

    I decided to poke around today and figured out (cheers kevinrocksman & alexhc18) how to raise both the 4k and 1080p bitrates as well as 100% image quality on 4.4.2 TW.

    Here is my modified SamsungCamera2.apk file with the following bitrates:

    4k @ 80mbit
    1080p @ 22mbit
    192kbps audio for both
    100% image quality (uncompressed)

    Working great on my N9005 :)
